THE TEXAS COTTON ASSOCIATION

President Ellen Batchelder, of  BUNGE, Palacios, Texas  

invites YOU

to attend the TCA 115^th Anniversary Convention

April 29, 30 & May 1, 2026

 Texas A&M Hotel, College Station

TCA President, Ellen Batchelder, announces the theme of this year’s 115^th Anniversary Convention, “Deep Roots. Bold Growth: The Texas Cotton Association Legacy”. 

Deep in the Heart of TEXAS, we celebrate one hundred and fifteen years of The Texas Cotton Association and the people's love of TEXAS COTTON. 

Filled with grit and gumption, our storied history is the cornerstone for bold growth, today, and for centuries to come. 

That is our legacy. And it is our future.

TCA facilitates platforms for better cotton communication to reduce disruptive flow issues. We drive conversation that contributes to sound cotton industry policy regionally, nationally and internationally. We advocate for cotton’s policy and position as the #1 cash crop of Texas and historically the largest cotton producing state in the nation. We create convention activities that build business relationships and lasting friendships. We are the cotton segment that underwrites the risk from the time the producer sells his cotton until the customer requires delivery. The cotton industry’s success and reputation are dependent on strategic planning and critical connections with our supplier partners and cotton industry segments! Cotton merchants need YOU and YOU need cotton merchants! We invite you to attend the 115th Anniversary Convention of The Texas Cotton Association at the Texas A & M Hotel, in College Station, Texas!
